More bags - introducing 'mini' drawstring lunch bag







I was at my mum's place again but I am fighting the battle alone today. Phew! After some unpicking, finally my bag is done.

I really like the lime green cartoon fabric. Shall use the leftover fabric to sew up a lunch bag.

I am eager to try out a mini drawstring lunch bag that could fit in my wallet, handphone and of course tissue (which I can't live without it).



This is my mini lunch bag. It looks small but my long wallet can actually fits in.

Meet my ballerina, Bella


Hi, I am Bella. Today is my first solo performance on stage, I am so nervous. Let me take a peek at the audience. Here I go, I have to make my Tip-Toe Ballet School proud.



Look at her 'banana' split.





See how flexible I can be.

Special thanks to Surgeon Sia for the plastic surgery and fifyjo for the pink yarn.

Little touch-up on my tote bags


Isn't the rose beautiful?


The bow is there for a reason. Do you know why?


A different look!

My mum has put some magic touch to my tote bags made yesterday. I must say I have got a lot to learn from her.

Sewing class again .....at my mum's place


Bags in different sizes.


My mum's bag is gigantic.



My second attempt



My Mum's gigantic bag


I have been showing so much interest in handicrafts lately that my mum has started wondering what is wrong with me. Today I am at her place trying to duplicate a bag which I have learnt last week. Luckily she is around to guide me cos I seem to forget some (or most) of steps. Guess what, my mum loves the design and decides to make one (a gigantic one) for herself.

Fun at sewing class









Bored had a tiring but fun day yesterday. My colleagues and I were at JS' place learning how to sew a reversible tote bag. The bag may look simple but it is really time consuming. By the way, we (or should I say I) broke 3 needles in the class.

Finally, the reversible tote bags after much confusion and unpicking.
Special thanks to JS and her broken needles.

My first knitted doll - Nurse Dolly

This is my first knitted doll, Nurse Dolly. She is working in Bored Hospital and life is boring. Fortunately, she has made a new friend, meet Valerie, the Ballerina. Isn't she sweet and slim? Time to work out Dolly, look at your tummy!
